Children Of The Universe - Vince Gill Amy Grant Kathy Mattea Patty Loveless
A heritage of vision was given to us all
To smell the rose's fragrance
To hear the songbirds call
To watch the distant moonlight fill
The coming of the tides
To understand that
Life is more than always choosing sides
And some have seen what can be seen
Of sailing ships and kings
And some are given feet of clay
And some are given wings
Some must struggle just to breathe
Some have a golden spoon
And some will never leave the nest
While some walk on the moon
And don't you know the life
That lives within the silent hills
Is just as rich and beautiful
And just as unfulfilled
As man with all his intellect
His reason and his choice
Oh who's to say the nightingale
Has any less a voice
The silver dolphins twist and dance
And sing to one another
The cosmic ocean knows no bounds for all
That live are brothers
The whippoorwill the grizzly bear
The elephant the whale
All children of the universe
All weavers of the tale
So Palomi no lie back down
And dream yourself to sleep
The hawk flies with the mourning dove
The lion with the sheep
As far away as you may go
We'll never be apart
It's in your dreams that you will know
The seasons of the heart
